Shiva seems to behave on the cosmic level in a universal context. The dance of Shiva contributes to human social order, and in a way because of that fate, on the ultimate outcome of human experience.


We can hear Shiva’s roar on the internet. All the user commentary and general traffic, and mostly it gives people the impression that internet culture is for the most part a psychological trash heap. This would be the pile of bodies Shiva is known to dance on.

“We should worship lord Shiva so that we are freed from our worldly attachments just like a fruit falls from a tree after ripening. Once we are successful in doing this we are liberated from this vicious cycles of life and death.” Yajur Veda

  • Special Memory

    Special Memory

    Tonight, we are doing another in the applied theurgy series, specifically on the god Shiva/Rudra. But first, what would you call an influence that spans individual beings awareness, influencing them all? Transcendent? Meme or archetype, I guess, are technical terms. We have many of those in the realm of human experience, and often they seem to…

  • Dance of Shiva

    Dance of Shiva

    Shiva is a very mysterious deity like many if not all of the Hindu deities. Shiva seems to behave more on the cosmic level in a universal context than anything else. We often don’t get a chance to see all the politicking, so don’t as citizens really know how competent he might be. “Cosmic” as…

    Practice the Memory of the God

    I may get a little Gnani here, non-devotional. From one point of view the purpose of ritual is to honor the gods, and I won’t deny that. People tend to get caught up in what might please the gods. I guess because we like to make people we care about feel good, happy. But as…

  • Dwelling on Shiva

    Dwelling on Shiva

    So ritual, the prescribed offerings, the chants, incense and dance, the symbolism and works of charity, each selectively and deliberately undertaken, serve as memory cues. When you see or smell Shiva’s offering, even before you begin the ritual, you can feel the presence of Shiva as you have built up that awareness in your mind.…

  • Sainthood

    Sainthood

    So shall we discuss sainthood? It may not be what you think. Deep and prolonged devotion, even passionate commitment to devotion, one can become changed. It changes one. Mental force has been proven to rewire the human brain, if only slowly, but I wager simultaneous activation of many regions of the brain can speed up…

  • Small Blessing

    Small Blessing

    To use applied theurgy as it regards healing practice, it’s not necessary to achieve full unity with the divine to accomplish some of the things saints are known for. Even just a strong intuition, at different stages of deepening understanding, even just an innate gift, one can come to understand some small facet of what…
